Who are we?
Zencity is a mission-driven startup re-inventing the way governments hear from, understand, and engage with their residents. Our community input & insights platform and community survey solution use advanced NLP and ML algorithms to help government organizations make data-driven decisions. Our global team of urban enthusiasts and data geeks works with over 400 cities - from Los Angeles, to Chicago, to Austin. If you're passionate about joining a growing and dynamic company focused on leveraging data and tech to work on real-world challenges and radically improve life in cities - your place is with us!
What is the role?
This is not a typical full-stack position. We're looking for an exceptional Staff / Principal Engineer who can own complex technical domains, shape system architecture, and lead end-to-end development while remaining 100% hands-on. You will report directly to the VP R&D, work closely with them on technical strategy and architecture, gradually take ownership of architectural responsibilities across the platform, and become one of the company's leading technical voices. Along the way you'll help mayors and other city leaders understand their residents and their city in more effective ways, improving the lives of millions of citizens around the world.
What you'll do
Own complex product domains from architecture through production
Lead end-to-end feature development across frontend, backend, and cloud
